Specific gravity What is specific gravity? Archimedes discovered that the weight of body in air minus its weight in water is equivalent to the weight of the water displaced by the body. Specific gravity is defined as "The weight of a body compared with the weight of an equal amount of pure water at 4°C (4°C is the temperature at which water is densest). When a body is placed in water‚ the volume of water displaced is equal to the volume of the body. When the body is placed in water that it

1 Honors Laboratory: Specific Heat and Conservation of Energy When energy in the form of heat Q is added to a material‚ the temperature of the material rises. Note that temperature‚ in units of degrees Celsius (°C) or Kelvin (K)‚ is a measure of how hot or cold a substance is‚ while heat‚ in units of joules (J) or calories (cal)‚ is a measure of its thermal energy. 1cal = 4.19J. A measure of the efficiency with which a substance can store this heat energy is known as specific heat capacity‚ or simply

Introduction: Specific gravity or relative density is the ratio of the density of a substance to the density of a given reference material. Specific gravity usually means relative density with respect to water. Temperature and pressure must be specified for both the sample and the reference. The following formula is used- Specific gravity= density of sample/density of same volume of water. Specific gravity is commonly used as a simple means of obtaining information about the concentration of solutions
